To avoid having any connection with Young Master Sikong, Master Wuji had gone against the grain and turned this encirclement into a scheme exploiting the Overlord Soul inheritor. Rather than clarify the relationship, this would prevent certain people from letting their imaginations run wild.
These words made Pei Yuxian and her brother shudder violently from head to toe on the spot...
The matter of Su Old Devil's remnants appearing in the eastern Central Plains had naturally become common knowledge. Earlier, it had been they who confirmed that the so-called Demon Dream Witch had captured Sikong Jing, and it had also been they who killed the Thousand Kings Holy Tower's pursuers sent after Sikong Jing.
Their purpose should have been to monopolize the Overlord Soul Hundred-Man Army-Slaying Formation.
Thus, forces such as the Thousand Kings Holy Tower, which were highly interested in Xiu Hanzhi, had already begun searching the eastern Central Plains.
Yet Su Old Devil's remnants had borrowed the situation surrounding the Overlord Soul inheritor to wait here. They had come here specifically to kill the Thousand Kings Holy Tower's Ten Emperors and Hundred Venerables, because they had long guessed that the Thousand Kings Holy Tower would certainly send important figures to demand an explanation.
And now, Pei Yuxian and her brother had walked right into the trap and been surrounded.
At that thought, Pei Yuxian felt her chest explode, but a surge of true energy immediately erupted from her entire body.
The terrifying pressure of a peak Emperor made the Emperor artifact formation around them hum and quake violently.
Then she sneered again and again. "Just you lot? It's not as if we lack intelligence on Su Old Devil's remnants. Their strongest haven't even reached the Emperor Realm. What do you have to fight this Emperor with?"
